Sadly, we recorded the passing of Elli Attman. The family
requested all donations in her memory go to Miriam Lodge. Including additional funds from her husband Seymour Attman, $1630 was donated for an addition to the library at The Children’s House at Johns
Hopkins; the space is calledElli’s Corner.

The success of the Tzedakah Fund warrented special stationery on which to acknowledge donations.
Helen Silesky Eisenstein graciously created a beautiful blue and white design for the notecards

Many trips raised thousands of dollars for more than 33 charities

An act ofpikuach nefesh(saving an endangered life): In honor of our 130th year, Lodge provided three
Argentinean Jewish families with funds for two years to ensure that their homes would be spared and that they could remain self-sufficient during that country’s economic and social
upheaval.
